Empowering Kaurs- Women in employment
The objective of this project is to:
promote a connected community of women in the Punjabi community, that builds capability and support across various levels into mainstream careers.
We propose to do this by:
promoting a mentoring and leadership program to increase the number of women in employment
bringing together people in community with expertise to support and mentor Punjabi women for work readiness
sourcing opportunities for creating a friendly environment, to identify issues and barriers which are specific to Punjabi women in the workplace and provide solutions to address these concerns
providing a vehicle to raise awareness of issues and training related to workplace culture and facilitate change and increase participation in workplace.
Our first seminar is being held on Sunday 6/12/20 at Glendenning Public School from 1-3 PM. If you are looking to get help and support from a mentor to do with job preparation and interview skills, you should add this event to your calendar.
